Guild Wars 2

I watched as much of that 4 hour reveal as I could. I love a lot of the changes that are coming, but noticed an odd absence in the trait lines (specifically focused on my beloved engineer profession)… no swiftness on kit change?

Did I just miss it? Has there been any news about this?

I’m beginning to realize that almost every character I play, I setup to have some baseline speed increase. I can’t stand how slowly characters walk around these vast maps.

It is still there but in a way it is gone as well if you want the benefits from Kit Refinement.

The way I read that is that it is still there, you’ll just have to be careful about putting yourself in combat with the things kit refinement drops.

Unless I’m missing something.

That is part of it. I was thinking more along the line of the fact that you will be triggering Kit Refinement’s effect so you won’t have it available most of the time on the other hand you just have to give up one kit’s effect. Med Kit, Flamethrower and Tool Kit should also avoid the getting into combat issue.

Oh you mean the internal cooldown right? Thats a good point, if your build needs the Kit refinment aspect that won’t be up all the time. If you take the trait for speedy kits alone then kit refinement is just a bonus. Right?
